Antiwar pukes still parading for the bad guys

With freedom on the move across the Middle East and beyond, aggrieved antiwar U.S. protesters have nothing to do this weekend than what they always do: stand in the way.
The most unhinged of left-wing activists, from breast-exposing pacifists to the conspiracy-mongers of MoveOn.org, will descend on New York, Washington and other major media markets to "mark the two-year anniversary of the U.S. bombing and invasion of Iraq." They will clog the streets, tie up police and leave a trail of anti-Bush propaganda litter. Who says the left doesn't know how to create jobs?
...
You can guarantee there will not be a single sign of purple ink solidarity, but the dictator-lovin' ladies of Code Pink who prance around in pastel underwear will be out in full force.
On the way, the marchers will harass workers at a local military recruiting station. Yes, these are the supposed peaceniks who derive pleasure from ripping yellow ribbon magnets off minivans and throwing rocks through ROTC campus offices. These are the acolytes of Michael Moore, who compares Iraqi head-choppers to American Revolutionary war heroes.
...
The Bush-bashers, as always, have impeccable timing. Nothing highlights more the bankrupt obstructionism of the antiwar movement than the inspiring photos of the renaissance of freedom in Lebanon. Contrast faces of hope and defiance against terrorism at the massive rallies in Beirut's Martyrs Square this week with faces of Bush hatred and capitulation to terrorism you'll see this weekend. Any question who's winning?
Seasoned observers who cover the War on Terror in the "blogosphere" (the increasingly influential world of Internet Web logs) have a useful term for the American left's protesters against progress: moonbats. Perry de Havilland of the blog Samizdata (samizdata.net) defined a moonbat as "someone on the extreme edge of whatever their -ism happens to be."
Surveying this bizarre array of grim-faced parade organizers on the extreme edge of anti-Americanism, it's clear: The barking left has been left behind. And it's driving them batty.
